Apr 29 2012, Intense meditation @ home

Sunday, Apr 29 2012.

Kept off alcohol, so with a rationally stable mind, able to focus sincerly with out external distraction on the requirements of actions I need to take up on and ground myself. Not improve, not raise above, not lower or anything that indicates sine waves and trubulance. Just pure grounding and neutralizing and bringing about stability.
Starting off with the words

Keep your thoughts positive
because your thoughts become your words,

Keep your words positive
because your words become your behaviors.

Keep your behaviors positive,
because your behaviors become your habit.

Keep your habits positive,
because your habits become your values.

Keep your values positive,
because your values become your destiny.

Values make a person.
Values are the flowers of ones depth in character.
Character is the off-spring of ones sincere, honest thinking and choices made.
Choices made are often the result of sacrifices and acts of unselfishness.

Putting oneself behind and putting others ahead is often an start towards unselfish practice.

Apr 28, Sat hike or not in the cold

Saturday, Apr 28 2012

woke up with the intention of going out hiking, but then looked at the company of people and did not feel much motivated to go. Kind of re enforced my plan to stay at home and save up on my energy and gas for my car.

With the rise in gas prices, its been discouraging to think of long drives. Would rather drive around closer places.

Apr 27 2012... end of week

Friday, Apr 27 2012

End of week and almost the month of April.
Lazy day and the weather is getting colder with freez warning posted on the weather channel for the night. That kind of screws up motivation to go out and have some dance fun..... just the distance and thought of driving is overwhelming.

Maybe this week I will rest up and move in by the next. Tango top of the list with Caro coming back from her trip. only able to dream dancing with her now. hopfully will get to dance with her gentle sweetness.

got out of work around 3:15 and got my car inspection taken care off and then fixed the problem with some connecting at the left back wheel.

Kind of reminded how me and eva had a very close call, when the pin gave away on front wheel a few days after our trip. Had this happened during the trip, I am sure we would have not made it in this world. Not sure she realises how close we both came to extinction.
I am sure mirslov must have had the same kind of issue with his car.

ok for some vodka... almost finished half off the 1.7liter bottle... with one shot during weekends.. hmm.

Apr 23 2012, meditation and dancing

Monday, Apr 23 2012

got up around 5am,  reached work aroun 7:45

out at around 5pm reached downtown around 6 and was stuck in the middle of a traffic stoppage caused by a building on fire. anyway got to the meditation place by 6:30,,,,, then was in the middle of an intense and varied group discussion on the slokas (verses). was interesting to hear peoples take on things and how they related to the words..... and I was not having much to say and felt peoples eyes staring at me when ever there was silence and it was like they were expecting me to say something... hmm is it because I look like a buddhist monk and they instinctly expect me to say something wise.

when an aggressive old man brought up the topic of tailgating and people cutting you off and asking for other reaction, I was well in the game, as I was and have been trying to practice the transfer of good feelings towards people who I thought were doing something bad and was wishing them good and in turn felt good about thinking good thoughts about them.... it kind of stuck a chord among them.
